He accepted the invite to the Senior Bowl, so this won't interfere with the NFL Combine...I haven't seen that he pulled out to instead focus on the combine.....I just assumed he would be doing both.

He is expected to be drafted regardless, so hopefully i'm not wrong on the combine invite.

Senior Bowl Practice Day 1:

NATIONAL: RB Roschon Johnson, Texas​

The spotlight was on Bijan Robinson this season, which overshadowed the pure talent of Roschon Johnson. He has a chance to make a big-time rise in his NFL Draft stock. He was beating linebackers in one-on-one pass-catching drills and showed off his footwork in position drills. Make sure you know who Johnson is when the clock starts on the 2023 NFL Draft.

skip ahead to 9:30.


Realize this. If he had gotten the same number of carries as Bijan Robinson at Texas, RJ would likely have had as many yards as Robinson and been declared as one of the top backs in the nation. Also a better blocker and better hands than Robinson.

Broke his hand during this (1st day) practice and will not play in SB game. Will reportedly not require surgery but could also limit participation in combine. So sad, as it is reported that he really impressed the scouts on day 1 and was gaining momentum with regard to draft position. Hopefully someone will see through this terrible bit of bad luck and give him the chance he deserves. If so, he will not disappoint.

Well that sux..he should still be able to compete in combine drills for things like vertical jump and 40 yard dash I would think...I still haven't see he has gotten an official invite ... but not sure why he wouldn't get one.

Dude is going to have NFL coaches saying where did this guy come from? Answer should be from being hidden in the shadows of UT’s failures to utilize talent. They were too focused on Bijan Robinson’s success. All the scouts talking about how slow RJ is are insane. No he does not cut on a dime but he has a great burst and 22.6MPH top end is far from slow. As a comparison, Tyreek Hill from the Chiefs was timed at 21.91 mph in 2021.
